How to proceed when the Xiaomi 12 has an authentication problem on the Wifi network

Forget the Wifi network on your Xiaomi 12

If perhaps the Wi-Fi network to which you wish to connect has been changed since your last authentication, your Xiaomi 12 may display the text: Authentication or authentication error . If perhaps the issue comes from there, the solution is very simple. Simply forget about the Wifi network in your Xiaomi 12. To accomplish this, go to the settings of the Wifi network and keep pressed on the network in question. You will then have the option to select the option: Forget this network . Once it is carried out, you can try again to connect to the Wifi network. In the event that the issue is not fixed, go to the next section.

Press the box button

Whether your box is Orange, Bouygues Telecom, SFR or Numéricable, it may happen to have a issue of authentication Wifi on the Xiaomi 12 because the box is not in Synchronization mode . If you want to activate the synchronization mode of your box, it can be very basic. You should find a synchronization button to press. When this is carried out, a light will most of the time start blinking. You can then try to reconnect to the Wifi network with your Xiaomi 12. If perhaps it still will not function, go to the next trick.

Retype Security password

Sometimes the authentication problem originates from the solution you type the Wifi network password. Indeed, it can be sometimes subtle to type a password Wifi on its Xiaomi 12. We therefore advise you to try all the following possibilities:

  • Type the code without spaces or hyphens
  • Type the password in uppercase
  • Type the password in lowercase

Restart your box

As in a great many laptop problems, the solution is oftentimes very simple. Indeed, 80% of the laptop problems are solved by restarting the machine. We therefore recommend you to restart your box and your Xiaomi 12. After that try to reconnect with your Xiaomi 12.

Check box settings

If perhaps non-e of the previous answers did function, the problem may be found to be on the box of your provider. It will therefore be important to go in the parameters of the box and to test if perhaps the system of key is in WPA / WPA2 . If perhaps this is not the case, select this option. After that try to connect your Xiaomi 12 again to Wifi. If perhaps the authentication issue persists, we recommend that you contact your service provider or a telephone store.
